French passengers will be exempt from quarantine measures that'll come into force in UK amid coronavirus pandemic
French passengers will be exempt from quarantine measures that will come into force in the UK amid the pandemic.
The statement added:"No quarantine measures would apply to travellers coming from France at this stage; any measures on either side would be taken in a concerted and reciprocal manner. Government sources had already indicated that people arriving from the Republic of Ireland would not have to self-isolate when the quarantine measures take effect.Despite speaking to the aviation minister on Sunday, airline and airport bosses told the BBC that they were still in the dark over basic details such as when the quarantine measures would come into force, when they would end and whether they would be continuously reviewed.
"Ministers are effectively telling people they can no longer travel for the foreseeable future and airlines will respond to that by grounding their operations." The pandemic is already causing acute damage to the UK's aviation sector, and airline and airport bosses believe the quarantine will make things a whole lot worse.
